DocBean Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 [u]East - Round III[/u] [b](1) Aemon the Dragonknight [/b]Vs (4) Khal Drogo We had a tie, I flipped best out of 3. Dragonknight was heads because the dragon has 3 heads, Khal Drogo was tails because well, he has a pony-tail, and his son was born with a tail. first two flips were heads, third flip was a tail. So no number ones have fallen yet. Dragonknight moves on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocBean Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 My vote North - Round IV [b](1) Barristan "The Bold" Selmy [/b]Vs (2) Gregor "Mountain that Rides" Clegane the Mountain all but lost to the Red Viper, I think Barristan is good enough to take him down. South - Round IV [b](1) Arthur Dayne "Sword of the Morning" [/b]Vs (6) Garlan Tyrell Remember when Arthur fought the Smiling Knight? He actually let him get a new sword before he took him out because Dawn made such a mess of his first one. That's just plain awesome. West - Round IV [b](1) Jaime "Kingslayer" Lannister [/b]Vs (3) Daemon Blackfyre This would be a good one I think.

Etchedincold12 Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 North - Round IV [b](1) Barristan "The Bold" Selmy[/b] Vs (2) Gregor "Mountain that Rides" Clegane Barristan is too skillful to get overwhelmed by Gregor's superior force and would be able to pull out a win, but the fight could go either way if Gregor "clips his wings" as it were. South - Round IV [b](1) Arthur Dayne "Sword of the Morning"[/b] Vs (6) Garlan Tyrell Arhur Dayne is just too good, there's no potential for upset even remotely in this fight. West - Round IV [b](1) Jaime "Kingslayer" Lannister[/b] Vs (3) Daemon Blackfyre This one is just too hard to pick. Jaime is going against what some could argue is most deserving of a #1 seed. I'm just going with the topseeded seeming underdog. East - Round IV (1) Aemon the Dragonknight Vs [b](3) Robert Baratheon[/b] Robert against a dragon? Give me the Big Drunk Rob every time.

Drogo Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 ROUND IV THE ELITE EIGHT North - Round IV (1) Barristan "The Bold" Selmy Vs (2) [b]Gregor "Mountain that Rides" Clegane[/b] While Barristan is a fantastic swordsman he does not have the advantage the Red Viper had, namely six feet of wood and two feet of steel. South - Round IV (1) [b]Arthur Dayne "Sword of the Morning"[/b] Vs (6) Garlan Tyrell This one is obvious. West - Round IV (1) Jaime "Kingslayer" Lannister Vs (3) [b]Daemon Blackfyre[/b] Ok I think there is some confusion on who Daemon Blackfyre is. Daemon Blackfyre is the guy who was described as being "The Warrior incarnate" aka Jaime prays to Daemon and Daemon chops off his golden head. East - Round IV (1) [b]Aemon the Dragonknight [/b]Vs (3) Robert Baratheon The Dragonknight is beast, plus Robert is drunk most of the time and his hatred of Dragonspawn will blind him to the cunning and skill of Aemon. And Dark Sister > Warhammer every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 ROUND IV THE ELITE EIGHT North - Round IV (1) [b]Barristan "The Bold" Selmy[/b] Vs (2) Gregor "Mountain that Rides" Clegane Gregor depends on shock and awe. A competent fighter like Bronn can see his weaknesses. Barristan would tire him out and take him apart. South - Round IV (1) [b]Arthur Dayne "Sword of the Morning"[/b] Vs (6) Garlan Tyrell Garlan gets a bad draw. Probably best of the still living crop but not good enough to beat Dayne. West - Round IV (1) Jaime "Kingslayer" Lannister Vs (3) [b]Daemon Blackfyre[/b] Tough one, both have a lot to prove and both do that with marital prowess. My initial instinct was Jaime but I think Blackfyre had better competition to hone his skills against, thus would prevail here. East - Round IV (1) [b]Aemon the Dragonknight[/b] Vs (3) Robert Baratheon 'Nother tough one. As good as Robert was he'll be remembered as the ultimate brawler not the perfect knight. The final four almost deserve a round robin to determine who the last two fighters should be, but the would probably taking too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maester Yobjascz Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 [quote name='DocBean' post='1383922' date='Jun 4 2008, 12.03'][b] ================================================================================ ================================================================================ [/b] [b]ROUND IV THE ELITE EIGHT[/b] [u][b]North - Round IV[/b][/u] (1) [b]Barristan "The Bold" Selmy [/b]Vs (2) Gregor "Mountain that Rides" Clegane - Gregor is big, strong, and capable... but any of the top-seeded fighters should beat him. Gregor needs Barristan to really slip up (a la Oberyn Martell) to eke out a victory. Barristan took out the Titan's Bastard in his 60s (70s?) with a stick. In his prime, with a sword, Gregor is toast. [u][b]South - Round IV[/b][/u] (1) [b]Arthur Dayne "Sword of the Morning"[/b] Vs (6) Garlan Tyrell - Garlan's improbable run to the Elite Eight ends at Dawn. [u][b]West - Round IV[/b][/u] (1) [b]Jaime "Kingslayer" Lannister[/b] Vs (3) Daemon Blackfyre - Wow. This is a tough call, and would be an *incredible* duel. But I think Jaime has the edge. Daemon was called the Warrior incarnate, but who were his contemporaries? Daeron II was a thinker, not a fighter. Bloodraven wielded Dark Sister, but preferred his bow. Bittersteel was good, but not noted for his prowess. Gwayne Corbray's claim to fame is that he fought Daemon to a standstill for nearly an hour. I think Daemon isn't as good as his superlative suggests. Conversely, Jaime stands out as being great despite his contemporaries: Barristan, Gregor, Sandor, Oberyn, Garlan, as well as having trained with Arthur Dayne and the rest of Aerys II's Kingsguard. [u][b]East - Round IV[/b][/u] (1) Aemon the Dragonknight Vs (3)[b] Robert Baratheon[/b] - Are you kidding? A young Robert with the opportunity to kill more Targaryens?

Ender Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 ROUND IV THE ELITE EIGHT North - Round IV (1) Barristan "The Bold" Selmy Vs [b](2) Gregor "Mountain that Rides" Clegane[/b] South - Round IV [b](1) Arthur Dayne "Sword of the Morning"[/b] Vs (6) Garlan Tyrell West - Round IV [b](1) Jaime "Kingslayer" Lannister[/b] Vs (3) Daemon Blackfyre East - Round IV (1) Aemon the Dragonknight Vs [b](3) Robert Baratheon[/b] NCAA ranks the #1 seeds 1-4 and fits them into their bracket so 1 plays 4 and 2 plays 3 if all four #1 seeds advance to the Final Four. Of course, that requires a pseudo-voting decision in and of itself, so rolling dice works fine for me. I'd probably have gone South plays West, East plays North if I were doing it the NCAA way. EDIT: Upon further review, Barristan's game-winning three pointer was after the buzzer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
